   I would give a 5 for this nice little [infact very small]program. Works fine with existing playlist (.m3u), but has problems in playlists with shared files located in a remote computer. I would also suggest having a small feature up in the next release - "Minimize to tray".

2. Comment - Sweden to indict Pirate Bay owners by end of month

   Check out rapid$$$$$.com or mega$$$$$$.com and many more file hosting sites. They have more the so called copyright infringing content. These are not indexing file like torrent, but the actual content.
   
   Though they say that they take down content infringing copyright... rarely and only a very few are removed.
   
   Why is MPAA, RIAA or IFPI not even showing the least amount of efforts to take these sites down???

   Ask Microsoft: "While most business clients are still reluctant to switch from XP to Vista. Whats your plan for Windows 7, to gain the confidence of the customer and make the transition to it more easier and better?"
   
   Ask Betanews :) - "Why were all these products never used by the Betanews team till now. And If each of these product companies ask you why you have not used them, what will be your answers? "

4. Comment - Illegal Music Downloads Up in UK, Down in US

   Hooray!!! for the pirates, they have made us think that piracy has been reduced. Its a grand success for them.
   
   The companies cannot stop piracy, there has always been an alternate way. Just because someone "Says" that they have purchased music legally(or even asking them directly about their illegal downloads) does not confirm that they don't download music illegally.
   
   ""The BSA's study involved 1,196 youths aged 8 to 18, while the UK Digital Media Survey covered 1,700 13 to 60 year-olds.""
   
   and Digital Media Survey states
   "the greatest rise came in the 18 to 34 year-old range"
   
   If the survey has sampled different age groups, Then how could they conclude piracy went down in US ????

5. Comment - US Gov't Cracks Down On Pirated Games

   "If you didn't have backups, when your sole copy broke, you'd buy another one, thus giving the publishers more money, or, erm, causing the publishers not to loose as much money?"
   
   Ahh... this is what they have referred to as
   "The industry claims these chips cause billions of dollars in lost revenue each year."
   
   What about the billions they earned by selling them?? They never mention about that in every single case of piracy...
   Just because someone plays a pirated game, doesn't mean he would have bought it if he could not get the pirated version.
   
   It seems, in future, every single piece of equipment you buy is just licensed to you, and you are not the owner of it and you dont have rights to modify it.[would be similar to software licensing crap]
   
   If they want to stop piracy, go behind the pirates. They cannot arrest the people who sell these chips, because they mod the device which is actually owned(not licensed) and with the owners permission.

6. Comment - UK Hacker Loses Extradition Fight

   In this internet age, it is upto the user to be secure enough. Like "Caveat Emptor" its "Let the User Beware".
   
   As he says that there were empty passwords and inadequate firewalls. Then who is to be blamed?
   
   Will the people who have not set the passwords properly or configured firewall improperly get a similar jail term and hefty fines?
   They are the main reason for this security breach.
